Resumo

O presente artigo visou apresentar o surgimento da Psicologia Positiva como um importante novo campo de estudos da Psicologia contemporânea, em um momento em que novos estudos têm focado a compreensão das forças e virtudes humanas. Especial atenção é dada a um de seus principais componentes - o bem-estar subjetivo -, também conhecido como felicidade. Buscando elucidar os aspectos envolvidos no estudo do bem-estar subjetivo, este artigo procurou abordar alguns de seus principais correlatos. O melhor entendimento dos fatores envolvidos com o surgimento tanto de emoções positivas quanto de negativas permite uma maior compreensão da condição humana diante das adversidades.
